Try bleeding the system TC, as the noise may be due to an air lock.
It could also be why it is shutting down.
If you don't know how to ( but I reckon being TC you do) :---
Using a radiator key, go round each of the rads,working back from the nearest to the boiler ,with the boiler and pump going.
Turn the key anti clockwise slowly, with a towel close up to it. You will hear a hiss prior to the water coming out . Close it after a couple of seconds of the water flowing out. C'/Ht'g systems should be bled once a year anyway.

If it's a std boiler with a header tank then this method is fine, however if it's a combi, you must repressurise the system once it's been bled, or the system might close itself down. Is the system old?
